Auditory Morphine
by Dorian Black+Breathe+
- I place the buds in my ears -
: He lies down with a needle in is arm :
- Bass hits and I close my eyes -
: Blood flows and he closes his :
- I let the hook reel me in -
: He thinks of how he'll get out :
+Breathe+
- Oblivion. The music numbs my fears. -
: Oblivious. The morphine takes his tears. :
-: It takes away the thoughts of what will happen
if he's not here tomorrow. :- 01/28/2012 Author's Note: The only thing that seemed to come out when they told me today that my dad was in the hospital with blood clots in his lungs.
